All Or Nothing

All Or Nothing

The easiest option is not the one you should choose !

Doing the "impossible" more is gained than thought !

When you put all at stake you can permanently lose,

Everyone always appreciates how hard you've fought.

..................................................

Everything has to be put on the line to win a crown,

Realizing rewards do come being what others are not !

Your attitude and will to succeed can't be kept down,

As you take on what others avoid to enjoy prime spot !

Inspiring words sir Richard, 

" We all have the same beginning (birth), and we will have the same ending (death), so how different can we be?  ",  by Mitch Albom 

I think the difference is how we live our lives in between:

We were born all alone, we study,  we graduate,  we get married,  stay together as couple for the rest of our lives or drift apart, have children or not,  until we find ourselves in an empty nest. 

The choices we make shape our future. 

I also lost a lot in my life in my early adult years like you Cherie Summer ( I hope you read this too). ### circumstances in life have caused me some deep searching.  I realised that I haven't been living my purpose,  because I listened to the dictates of others. ###

But I chose the difficult path###

Thanks for sharing with us!!  

I wrote an essay in College about this subject,  entitled " Roundabout of life "

My Dear Richard,

"All in", said the gambler

"I call", said his foe

"Looks like my bluff has been exposed"

"It's time for me to go now"

Inspired by Richard Waters lovely poem "All Or Nothing",

And Donald Trump, "The Personification of Nothing"

Peace and Love,

Larry xxx
